Money Problems? Consider A Viable Home Business
Money Problems? Consider A Viable Home Business
(c) Copyright 2005 Jim Eastman
Many people find themselves in what might be called the
"Time and Money Catch 22." Trapped in a dead-end job
with no hope for advancement, they live from paycheck to
paycheck making barely enough money to meet
expenses. They long to break free and start a business
of their own, because the hope of better money
"somewhere down the road" is way better than no hope
at all!
The "catch" is that starting a business would require
more time than their job allows, and yet they can't quit
their job because they're forced to depend on it to pay
their bills. There's just no getting around it! No new
business is going to begin making money the very first
day. There will always be a period of time when there's
just no money coming in.
What's needed is a business that:
* One can start in his spare time and at his own pace
* Can be started with very little money
* Can be making money in a reasonably short time
* Most importantly, can be operated part-time while the
entrepreneur maintains his present job during the "start
up" phase.
So the solution is to look for a business that one can
manage part-time until such time as there's enough
money coming in to equal or exceed the income from the
present job -- or at the very least, enough money to pay
the bills!
If you find yourself in this situation, a good business for
consideration would be the business of "Credit Repair."
Now there are credit repair agencies that charge $795 to
$2,000 or more for this service. Some attorneys even
charge as much as $5,000. So clearly, you can make a lot
of money doing credit repair.
But even though agencies and attorneys charge a great
deal of money, there's nothing they do that you can't do
yourself. Best of all, you can start with very little money
and do it part time while maintaining your current job.
Depending on which state you live in, you may need a
license and may be required to be bonded. But you DON'T
need to be an attorney, nor do you need any prior
experience. Credit repair is easy to learn and easy to do,
and with nearly 1 out of every 3 Americans having some
kind of credit problems, you'll likely have no trouble
finding clients, so you can begin making money in a
relatively short time.
While a detailed discussion of the process is beyond the
scope of this report, let's go through a condensed "run
down" of how credit repair works.
1. You have your client go to
www.annualcreditreport.com and get a copy of his
credit reports from the 3 major credit bureaus. They are
Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion.
2. Examine his report and identify negative items.
3. Write to the 3 bureaus and dispute several of those
items. By law they must investigate and reply within 30
days.
4. When the updated credit reports come back, repeat
the process and dispute additional items.
This explanation is a somewhat simplified version of the
process. To start making money in credit repair, you'll
need to get a good book on the topic and do some study.
You can easily find one online. You'll also need to
research the law pertaining to credit repair companies.
Just go to Google and type in "Credit Repair
Organizations Act."
But remember, it can all be done while you continue to
earn money at your current job. And even if your job
allow you little spare time, you can use the time you do
have to study at your own pace.
When you're ready, you can get started by doing some
"word of mouth" advertising. As you grow your business,
you'll want to reinvest some of the money you make into
paid advertising so you can recruit more clients. At that
point you'll be well on your way to dumping that dead-
end job and ending your money problems!
